Nauticam's first underwater camera housing, the NA-D90, for the Nikon D90, combines innovative ideas and high precision engineering into a compact body.
The positively received Nikon D90 camera has been labeled the "best value" DSLR; it is the first ever DSLR camera with high definition video capabilities, it has the ability to record HD 720p videos at 24 frames per second. Also notable is the camera's 12.3 megapixel resolution, TTL compatibility, high dynamic range and live view capability.
The Nikon D90 is the first Digital SLR camera with the ability to record high definition video as well as 12MP still photos, and Nauticam is the first housing vendor to bring the D90’s live view and ok/record buttons to the right handle in a single control. This allows convenient switching from still photo to live view/video mode, and assures steady video shooting by eliminating the awkward reach required by other housings in order to start recording video clips.
Camera controls operating Shutter Release, Focus/Exposure Lock, Aperture, Shutter Speed, Live View, and OK/Record can easily be accessed from the right grip. Zoom, Playback, and AF-MF are available from the left grip.
Nauticam engineers designed a simple, reliable port sealing mechanism that allows fast and easy lens port changes. Lens ports are inserted straight into the Nauticam mount, eliminating the twisting or threading actions that can extrude dry o-rings. Once seated, the large red port lock lever is engaged, securely locking the port in place. To remove a lens port, the silver unlock button is pressed, the port lever rotated to the outer position, and the port is pulled straight out of the housing.
Nauticam’s accessory viewfinder provides a crystal clear view of the camera’s optical viewfinder through a diving mask. The patented external diopter adjustment allows eye relief to be fine tuned in water. High quality optics keep distortion and color fringing to an absolute minimum.
Nauticam offers a full range of port adapters allowing owners to use their existing ports from Sea & Sea, Ikelite, Nexsus and SeaCam. This greatly reduces the cost of switching brands, and brings the benefits of Nauticam Innovation to a wide range of underwater photographers! Nauticam housings follow the same port chart usage as major manufacturers.
Reliable automatic flash exposure is available with the Nauticam D90 housing and a variety of optically fired flashes. Nauticam’s upcoming housing for the Nikon SB-R200 allows multiple small strobes to be controlled by the camera for sophisticated macro lighting patterns that fully unlock the potential offered by Nikon’s Creative Lighting System. Inon Z-240, D-2000, S-2000, and Sea & Sea YS-110 Alpha strobes can also provide automated lighting, precisely reproducing the camera’s onboard flash.
Nauticam uses a sophisticated overmold process to produce extremely comfortable ergonomic hand grips. Handles are available in two sizes to accommodate customers with different size hands, and spacers are included with the housing for cold water divers.
Nauticam Housings are machined from a solid block of seawater resistant aluminum alloy, then hard anodized making them impervious to corrosion. All hardware is marine grade stainless steel.
